Hi,
I have sucessfully played with column and cell colors for tables, but could not find any configuration option for table gridlines (size in px and colour).
Is there anybody with a hint?
just would need the <option name=xxxx>, if it works that way 😉
Many thanks in advance

You could edit the dashboard and switch to source mode, then add a hidden panel with css for the relevant attributes prior to the first row
<row depends="$STYLES$">
<panel>
<html>
<style>
.results-table .wrapped-results td{
border:2px solid #FF0000;
}
</style>
</html>
</panel>
</row>

Thank you.
Works as designed.
Any suggestions/links for formatting tables in dashboard beyond those options that are on the screen?
I.e. I can change cell background based on scale, but can I do font weight/color instead of cell background?
TIA.

CSS is your friend! Here are just a couple of things you can do with CSS
<panel depends="$stayhidden$">
<html>
<style>
#tiles table tbody tr{
margin-right:10px;
margin-bottom:10px;
}
#tiles table tbody tr td{
width: 180px;
text-align: center;
}
#tiles table tbody tr td[data-cell-index="1"]{
font-size: 2em;
}
#tiles table tbody td div.multivalue-subcell[data-mv-index="1"]{
display: none;
}
</style>
</html>
</panel>
<panel id="tiles">
<table>
<search>
<query>| makeresults
| eval _raw="Environment,Application,Hostname,Status
EUAT,MC,H1,RUNNING
EUAT,MC,H2,DOWN
DEV,IC,H4,ERROR
UAT,IC,HK,RUNNING"
| multikv forceheader=1
| table Environment Application Hostname Status
| eval Application=mvappend(Application,case(Status="RUNNING","GREEN",Status="DOWN","RED",Status="ERROR","ORANGE"))</query>
<earliest>-24h@h</earliest>
<latest>now</latest>
</search>
<option name="drilldown">none</option>
<option name="refresh.display">progressbar</option>
<format type="color">
<colorPalette type="expression">case (match(value,"RED"), "#ff0000",match(value,"ORANGE"), "#ff8000",match(value,"GREEN"),"#00ff00",true(),"#ffffff")</colorPalette>
</format>
</table>

Hi.
I guess I am missing something.
I.e. I have a table in the panel shown below.
Where hidden panel code should go? Between <row> and <panel> or aftr the <panel>?
Thank you
---------------------------------
<row>
<panel>
<title>CPU Utilization, Processor Time</title>
<html>
<style>
.dashboard-panel h2{
color:red !important;
text-align: center !important;
font-weight: bold !important;
border-top-right-radius: 15px;
border-top-left-radius: 15px;
background:#f1f5d7 !important;
}
</style>
</html>

Exactly as I showed you - the $STYLES$ token should not be defined anywhere in your dashboard - in this way, the whole row is not displayed (making the title you used redundant) - however, the style is still sent to the browser so it can effect the CSS defined in the style block
